London Explosion
I hope that no one has been injured - News24 are getting varied reports.

All I can understand is that the whole of the tube system has been closed, a bomb has ripped apart a bus at russell square....then there is confused reports of other things.

I hope that all are well

I was on my way in to work when a colleague called and said go home. Hope everyone is safe and well.

Appears to be terrorism... three explosions on buses, several at tube stations and mainline trains affected.

Bastards.

London has been bombed
Severeal reported bombs (on skynews.com) reported as going off in London.
Tube and Buses hit. No reported injuries yet.
From where I am I can see and hear sirens and choppers all over the place.
The ambulance chopper is flying continuosly.

Steady, CNN is reporting the problem as resulting from power surges.

Lets wait for a bit and see.

Report of explosion on a bus too. unlikely to be power surges.
